Apple seems to have many devices in its bag, which are expected to be released soon. One of them could be a new HomePod model, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. This will be a successor to the original HomePod, which was discontinued last year. Here are the details to note.
Apple may introduce a new HomePod next year, says Gurman
In his latest Power On newsletter, Gurman has revealed that Apple will launch the new HomePod in 2023. The new model, codenamed 'B620', is said to be powered by the S8 processor, which will also power the Watch 8 series this year.
The processor is expected to be similar to the S7 processor in terms of the details. However, we don't know how this will compare to the A8 chipset found on the OG HomePod. That said, this could still be a significant upgrade over the S5 chip found on the HomePod mini, which is Apple's only available smart speaker.
The new HomePod is also speculated to share the same design ethos as the previous one and audio performance will more or less remain the same. Updates on the display part and more additions are expected. A multi-touch feature is also in tow.
